Houses provide shelter, safety and ambiance for our lives. On this we can all agree. But what of the rumored, psychological effects a house can have on us? In particular, a house that is known for its helpful and otherwordly influence? Set at the Ragdale Foundation, a famously enchanted literary retreat in Lake Forest, IL, host Suzanne Clores reflects on the sentience of a house over time, and explores questions about our human sensitivity to the liminal.

When we think of curing illness, we think of combat: we must fight, beat and conquer in order to heal. But what if there's another, more powerful way to think about it?

Figuring out a simple, psychic experiment becomes a bonding experience when Suzanne and E.L. head to the lobby of San Francisco's Clift Hotel. They can hardly believe their luck when the perfect stranger agrees to play their game, and unforeseen circumstances nearly ruin the outcome. This Season Finale brings new understanding to why our extraordinary moments and abilities are so hard to claim, but impossible to ignore. A Season Two seems promising.
It's one thing to get a reading from an intuitive, and it's another to believe the information she shares. How could she possibly know anything about you? Common sense says don't trust a stranger who purports to have intimate details of your life. But what if you could interview that stranger, discuss and deconstruct their information-gathering process? What if you could ask every question you ever wanted to know about how intuition works? In Episode Five Suzanne Clores does this very thing, by following E.L., the mysterious woman from Episode Four, across the country for a face to face interview about how the empathic process works and its uses. The answer is chilling.
It's very easy to say all mediums are con artists when you don't have any data, or even a personal experience. A more interesting choice? Look into a medium's eyes, grant them permission to read your energy, and see what they have to say. Take a trip with Suzanne Clores as she does just that.
